Conversation Of The Weekend

Tom: "Hey Pat! Ya know, I saw something when I was pulling in..."

Me: "The muffler on the driveway?"

Tom: "Yeah. The muffler on the driveway. It's like eight feet long. Just sittin' there. Side of the road. Old rusty muffler. Probably fell off some equally old rusty car. The guy apparently didn't even notice."

(Pause.)

Me: "Think I should go move it?"

Tom: "What? The muffler? No fuckin' way! That thing adds character, man!"
